I'm looking for that original look on my restoration on my Forest Green 70 Convertible. Looks like the factory used Red Oxide primer and sprayed the inner body (doors and floor, etc)

What I'm looking for is a newer red oxide primer system with todays high quality, possibly a 2 part system.

Anybody know whats good and easy to spray? Also reasonably fast drying?
And look original?

Thanks, musclecarkid

Before you make a final decision, I would recommend you do some more research on what kind of primer was used on your car. I suppose anything is possible, but I've never seen red oxide primer from the factory during that era.

We restored a 70 SS396 that came with the same red oxide your talking about. We used a catalized two part paint mixed to match the red oxide. Any paint supplier can set you up with it.

Most every major paint mfg. still offers a red oxide primer. Unfortunatly most of these are acrylic lacquer, which is not recomended under todays bc/cc systems. There are many 2k primers out there that can be tinted with up to 10% toner. Your jobber should be able to tint a 2k primer or sealer to your specs.
